@lubricustheslippery5028 : “Criticising government is a good thing. Twice as good when that government is lying to you.” Britain had its largest ever demonstration in London (well over a million people) during the Iraq War. No one got arrested for it.

Oh . . . The, “cult,” of Putin. Thought it said something more accurate there . . . Russia’s people are pretending not to see, but they KNOW the truth, and they make me sick. You can’t be suffering the humiliation of cops doing random spot checking of your phones, arresting people left and right, and shutting down all news, apps, papers and radio stations, and pretend you, “believe,” anything! I don’t care what they say. It’s just a cultural expression of denial. If we have to starve them into waking up, so be it. An adult doesn’t fall for Propaganda. You have to WANT to be lied to. Weeds need fertile soil in which to grow. Look at education levels in Russia? One brain drain after another, and actively state encouraged ignorance. Superstitious belief systems and a Third World mentality that is evident by the way they torture, bomb, rape and murder their way across Ukraine. I have no sympathy for them anymore.

And, against that background, with half of their news stations, apps, radio, newspapers and everything else, just GONE overnight, the active collusion of the Russian people in this denial is obvious. So let us not forget the difference between them and the Ukrainians, who faced the exact same thing in 2014! They didn’t tolerate being silenced and carted off to jail! They stood and fought until they sent their dictator packing. And they didn’t have the numbers Russians have.

@vdotme : A) There’s a difference between deliberately targeting civilians as Putin’s army of cowards do, and bombing strategic targets. And B) Putin Bots never stick to the subject, because they’re historically as illiterate as they are on every other topic and must feel ashamed to have to argue the, “merits,” of child rape, looting, bombing, mining, torturing and MURDERING innocent men, women and children. Anyone who pretends there’s a comparison is a sick freak.

@luka1608 : If you want Europe to be good to you, stop, “sanctioning,” Ukraine. Your Neo-Soviet, Third World, “Army,” of Rapists, Looters, Torturers, Murderers and Cowards behave exactly like Nazis. Stop pretending you don’t know this.
